RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: AMERICA
The New Millennium
Twenty-five years into the new millennium
A year of extraordinary upheaval
Not a moment of boredom or tedium
The forces of virtue versus evil
Our democracy on the ropes
Bruised and battered by our president
Sliding down that slippery slope
A twisted vision warped and bent
His cause of mindless deportation
Pushes forward at a dizzy pace
The very core of the American nation
Devoid of justice and of grace
That we’ve endured this bold attack
Is a tribute to our strength and core
Somehow we’ll win our country back
Before he starts another war
All to please his quest for power
“The likes of which” we rarely see
The angry king in his lonely tower
A reign of terror, rage and greed
May we never see his like again
May his time in office soon expire
The things he’s done we can’t defend
A nation balanced on a wire
